Henley Point is proud to share the news of our recent signing of Mike O’Sullivan and his newest book, A Harmony of Worlds: Spiritualism and the Quest for Community in Nineteenth-Century America. This ground-breaking book, reproduced from its original 1981 academic release, considers why Spiritualism – embraced by a who’s who of America’s influential leaders – was among the fastest growing religions in North America in the 1800s.
This book addresses why people in nineteenth-century America turned to occult-like spiritual guidance for meaning and as an expression of their faith. The answers found in this book, originally assembled more than 40 years ago, are perhaps more relevant than ever.
A Harmony of Worlds: Spiritualism and the Quest for Community in Nineteenth-Century America explores the fascinating movement that included seances and the famous Fox sisters, Warren Chase, spiritism and the occult, Mesmerism and phreno-magnetism, and, at times, even magic.
